Nine lettermen appear on the starting University lineup, Gilligan and Levin being the two who have not as yet won the major award. Captain Barrett, Trainer, B. H. Ticknor, Douglas, Putnam, and Harper all answered the opening whistle last fall, while Gilligan, O'Connell, W. D. Ticknor, and Huguley saw action before the end of the afternoon.
